Street Parade After Authorities Ease 24-Lockdown Restrictions In Naif And Al Ras

Police paraded on the streets of Naif and Al Ras after there were zero new COVID-19 cases recorded in two days. In videos that were widely shared last night, you can hear the celebrations and see a mounted-horse parade. 

 Authorities eased the 24-hour lockdown restrictions to 10pm until 6am in line with the rest of Dubai after conducting over 6000 tests among residents of the areas in the last month. The Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster Management thanked the residents of both areas for their understanding and cooperation, which significantly contributed to the efforts to combat the virus.
